1.0 Introduction

The Service Call Procedures section is used to identify a suspected problem. This section con­tains Call Flow, Initial Actions, Corrective Actions, and Final Actions.
Call Flow illustrates the normal activities and flow of a service call.
Initial Actions are used to gather information regarding the performance of the machine and prepare the product for servicing.
Corrective Actions are used to verify the normal operation of the machine. In the Y/N (Yes/No) steps of the corrective actions, a Yes response will lead you to the next step . A No response will indicate the next step to perform or will direct you to a Repair Analysis Procedure (RAP).
RAPs will provide the instructions to isolate the faulty part or provide a list of suspect parts, when isolation is not appropriate. Wire harnesses are not included in the repair actions and problems with loose connections or damaged harnesses should be isolated using visual inspection and the wiring data in section 7.
Final Actions are used to evaluate the total operation of the system and to identify the actions required to complete the service call.
1.1 Machine Orientation
For servicing the DocuPrint N2025/N2825, all references to machine orientation are as illus­trated in Figure 1.

1.3 Initial Actions
Initial Actions are used to gather information from the operator concerning problems at the local machine. Make note of symptoms, error messages, error codes or other information con­cerning the problem that the operator may provide. This information may help identify an inter­mittent or unusual problem.
Procedure
1. Ensure that the power cord is connected to the wall outlet and to the machine.
2. Check for paper or other objects in the paper path.
3. Remove all paper from the output tray(s).
4. The Rear Cover and Top Cover are closed.
5. The paper is loaded correctly in the Paper Tray(s).
6. Ask the operator to describe, or if possible, demonstrate the problem.
7. If the problem is the result of incorrect operator action, refer the operator to the User doc­umentation or to another customer support function.
8. Refer to Section 2 if an error message is displayed.
9. If possible, print the “Configuration Sheet”. To pr int the Configuration Sheet, press and release [1] or [5] until “Print Menu” is displayed. Then press and release [2] or [6] until “Config Sheet” is displayed. Press Enter [4] to print the sheet. If the sheet is blank, go to IQ RAP 2.
10. Determine that the configuration settings are correct.
11. If possible, print the “Fault History”. To print the “Fault History” press and release [1] or [5] until “Print Menu” is displayed. Then press and release [2] or [ 6] until “Fault History” is dis­played. Next, press Enter [4] to print the sheet. The Fault History will list the error codes and the meter count when the event happened. Use the Fault History to determine the fre­quency of a problem. Access the Error Code Tables (Table 1 or Table 2) and perform the corrective action as instructed.
12. If the Fault History can not be printed, the fault history can be displayed on the Control Panel. To display the “Fault History” press and release [1] or [5] until “Print Menu” is dis­played. Then press and release [2] or [6] until “Display Faults” is displayed. Next, press press [3] to display the last f ault that occurred. Continue to press and release [3] to display the error codes in order from the newest to the oldest. Pressing and releasing the [4] key will display the codes in order from the oldest to the newest. The Display Faults will dis­play the error code and the meter count when the event happened. An example of the dis­play “E9-2 #820”, where E9-2 is the error code and #820 is the meter count.
13. Proceed to Corrective Actions.

Introduction

The Repair Analysis Procedures section is used to isolate and identify problems to a faulty component or subassembly. It contains the Introduction, display message table, error code table and the Repair Analysis Procedures (RAPs).

Measurements

Power and signal grounds are connected to frame ground, therefore all circuit troubleshooting can be performed using the metal frame (chassis) as the grounding point. If more information is needed to locate connectors or test points, refer to section 7.
Use the Display Messages and Error Codes tables when messages are displayed or error codes are printed in a report.
The Repair Analysis Procedures (RAPs) are acce ssed from Sect ion 1, system checks or addi­tional checks. There are two types of RAPs: Status Indicator (SI) RAPs, contained in this sec­tion, and Image Quality (IQ) RAPs, located in Section 3.
RAPs will normally isolate a problem to a specific component or s ubassembly, excluding the wire harnesses.
In the Y/N (Yes/No) steps of the RAPs, a Yes/No response will either lead you to the next step or will indicate a corrective action. When the indicated corrective action has been completed, go to Section 1 and restart the System Check to verify that the problem has been corrected.
Unless otherwise specified, the following voltage tolerances are used within this section: Table 1

+3.3 VDC +3.0 to 3.6 VDC +5.0 VDC +4.8 to +5.2 VDC +24.0 VDC +21.6 to +26.4 VDC

This section contains image quality repair procedures to assist in correcting image quality defects. These procedures provide defect samples, definitions and specifications to help iden­tify the type of defect that exists, the test pattern to use, and actions required to c orrect the defects.
Throughout these procedures, the term “vertical” refers to the process direction (the direction paper travels through the printer); the term “horizontal” refers to the scanning direction (the direction the laser beam scans across the page).
Be sure to check the paper tray to determine whether paper is being fed long edge or shor t edge first. This determines “vertical” and “horizontal” for paper fed from that particular tray.
Cleaning procedures should always be performed before beginning any Print Quality Repair procedure.
Be sure that the paper meets printer specifications. Changing the paper, or using paper from a previously unopened ream, will resolve many print quality issues.
After resolving an image quality problem, return to Image Quality Checkout to verify that no other image quality defects exist.
Sample reproductions of the various image quality patterns are included under Image Quality Specifications.
Use the Image Quality RAPS to further diagnose machine problems.
In the Y/N (Yes/No) steps of the RAPs, a Yes response will lead you to the next step. A No response will indicate a corrective action, or will direct you to another step. When the indicated corrective action has been completed, go to Section 1 and restart the Initial Actions to verify that the problem has been corrected.

Image Quality Defect Definitions

The System Controller Test Print is used to evaluate each of the print quality parameters. Each area of the test pattern is us ed for a print quality parameter. The areas and the print quality parameters are listed in Image Quality Checkout.
Table 1 Image Quality Defect Definitions

Introduction, Image Quality Defect Definitions

Image Quality Checkout

The System Controller Test Print is used to evaluate and ensure that the printed image meets the printer specifications.
Use new paper, whenever possible, to check the image quality of prints. Make five (5) prints of the System Controller Tes t Print (Figure 1) (GP 6.1). Discard the first two prints and retain the remaining prints for image quality analysis.
The Image quality Checkout is used to evaluate the following:
1. Resolution (2 places) (Figure 1)
2. Skips and Smears (4 places) (Figure 1)
3. Registration (1 place) (Figure 1)
4. Resolution and Uniformity (2 places) (Figure 1)
5. Solid Area Density (3 places) (Figure 1)
6. Half Tone Resolution (2 places). (Figure 1)
Go to Solid Area Density.

Procedure
NOTE: The operating environment of the printer is from 41o F (5o Celsius) at 15% relative
humidity to 95o F (35o Celsius) at 85% relative humidity. The fusing performance of the printer will vary according to the environment.
A cold environment will affect the warm-up time.
The weight (lb. / gsm) of the paper or transparency will affect the fusing of prints.
High humidity will have an adverse affect on the fusing of prints. Check the fusing quality of the image of a System Controller Test Print (Figure 1). Rub the
image three times with a soft cloth or tissue. The image should not lift off of the surface of the print. The fusing quality of the image meets the specification.
